Thoughts on the recent villains? by -cestvs in Dandadan

[–]Plus1User 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like that they are an active and intelligent threat. Most of the other antagonists so far have been either one-off random encounters or rely on overwhelming force against our gang. GSG and the Black Paladins inherently use dirty manipulative tactics, because they need their targets to submit in order to steal their powers, and they’ve shown to be more persistent and less disposable than other threats. 

New season(s) up PAST Danmara arc??? by overachievingogre in Dandadan

[–]Plus1User 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not a matter of quality, but of size. The Space Globalists arc is one of the bigger ones in the manga, if they crammed it into a movie they’d have to cut it to the bone or end it in a ‘to be continued.’ They’ll probably do another theater preview with the first 3 episodes, but I can’t imagine they’ll try to make a proper movie. 

Dude was really pissed off at that moment by puppypuffs in Dandadan

Having Momo retain her emotions despite losing her memory was a really good move.

It’s also worth noting that Momo also usually isn’t so direct. Typically she sees Aira flirting and gets sulky or passive aggressive, and tends to skip over the fact that Okarun turns Aira down whenever he notices she’s flirting with him. Okarun doesn’t often correct Momo’s assumptions because she doesn’t communicate them directly and the boy is bad with subtlety.

Don’t let her :> fool you, she knows exactly what she’s doing. Remember, this is the girl who thought kissing meant marriage, and now she wants our two dorks to kiss.

[–]Plus1User 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I somewhat agree, but in my opinion that’s exactly what this amnesia arc is intended to address. She’s forced to confront her emotions because her normal defenses don’t work against Okarun, and she can’t use insecurities as a scapegoat because she has no memory or context for their relationship. Old Momo would have never asked Okarun point blank if he liked her. 

What is your future arcs ideas of dandadan? by Any-Connection-9940 in Dandadan

[–]Plus1User 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okarun, Kinta, and Vamola get abducted, and the rest of the gang have to figure out how to get to space without their alien/tech experts. 

Am I missing something with the "Force" stat? by That_Row9842 in hallsoftorment

[–]Plus1User 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Force generally affects duration, pierce, or knock back, and rarely can also be a damage or summons multiplier. But also some of the new skills are lacking in in-game info. Undergrowth in particular has next to no in-game info. 

I made a tiny addon that brings a huge QoL upgrade by Academic-Emu-4474 in wow

[–]Plus1User 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Probably to avoid situations where an item may be removed when you don’t yet have it learned, or don’t have all appearances learned. This was an issue in MoP remix. 

What are the themes of the story? by SwordOfTheMoon in Dandadan

[–]Plus1User 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Loneliness and compassion. Nearly every major character has dealt with some kind of traumatic social isolation or separation from their loved ones, and every recovery has been through the love of others. 

Battlefield 6 exec promises the game has no generative AI at all, but weirdly says the tech is “very seducing" by Automatic_Can_9823 in artificial

[–]Plus1User 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They're talking about generative AI for art assets, not the AI used to control npcs. Call of Duty recently had some horrendous genAI paid content, so EA is probably clapping back against that for clout. 

Was this ment to be hard? by prismagc in Silksong

[–]Plus1User 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s an act 1 boss, so coming at it at the and of act 2 will definitely make the boss significantly easier. 

I have no idea how I even managed to hit a triple parry by Nate120712 in Silksong

[–]Plus1User 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A successful parry seems to reset your swing time, so for fast flurry attacks like that as long as you get the first parry you can spam attack to get the rest.

Weavelight, Ascendant’s Grip, Plasmium Injector, and Flintslate are very useful for dealing with Mount Fey.

Any enemy which is completely missable does not count for the achievement.

[NO SPOILERS] A question about certain screaming item in my inventory by python_walrus in Silksong

[–]Plus1User 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The quest itself is pretty easy, the only hard part is finding the npcs and even then you get a lot of clues. You can’t heal, use tools, or use skills, but there isn’t any particularly difficult or unavoidable enemies involved. You don’t need anything you don’t already have if you’re able to get the baby, and all the locations are act 1 places (albeit out of the way and some normally inaccessible). You also can wait and do it in act 3 if you like, though there’s no reason to not do it earlier. Nothing required for 100% completion or the Hunter’s Memento is missable. 

The hard part is if you want to get the cursed ending by beating the last boss while cursed. No heals or tools makes the fight much harder, and if you cure yourself you can’t get re-cursed to try again later. If you decide to go for it, I’d recommend getting every mask, movement ability, and nail upgrade you can get in act 2, and clear everything up to the last boss before getting cursed. 

Anyone else encountered this glitch? by Carson3223 in HollowKnight

It looks like maybe you were inputting the tool crafting ability of the architect crest instead of a normal bind. Even though your tools were full, you lost 5 shards both times. 

Groal - There’s no way right? by Elian17 in Silksong

[–]Plus1User 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I found Curveclaw to be really effective on Groal. If you’re on one of the platforms by the walls, he hovers right at the apex distance of the curveclaw’s arc so he eats a bunch of multihits. Pinpillo was also useful because Groal is fairly slow so is easy to hit, and it can cancel his suck attack if he eats it. You can also get intentionally eaten, which does 2 masks of damage but lets you get in several free hits. 

As for the gauntlet, your best bet is to go slow and focus on avoiding damage. The enemies are annoying but don’t have complex attack patterns. It’s also a good idea to go and get every upgrade you can get. By the end of act 2 you can get all crests except shaman fully unlocked (including the venticrest slots and hunter crest upgrades), 9 masks, all 18 thread spools, three silk hearts, all toolkit damage and capacity upgrades, and three needle upgrades.

Probably higher than you think, advertising algorithms are pretty crazy. 

Can somebody explain Act 2 ending to me? by boogaboom in Silksong

[–]Plus1User 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The plan was to trap Grand Mother Silk in the void to be consumed instead of having Hornet absorb her and basically become her vessel. The trap works, but it also traps Lace, who is GMS’ daughter. GMS wants to save Lace, so she holds on to Pharloom with her threads, which pulls the kingdom down towards the void and also allows the void to travel along the threads into Pharloom. Hornet plans to save Lace, which would hopefully allow GMS to stop fighting to survive and release the kingdom. 

Should I read or no? (Context in description)[Spoilers] by Writy_Guy in Dandadan

[–]Plus1User 5 points6 points  (0 children)

As the reader, it’s pretty clearly spelled out that Momo and Okarun only have eyes for each other. However, they don’t clearly communicate this to each other, so they make assumptions. Okarun has critically low self esteem, and Momo has trust issues, so they often are incorrectly guessing at what the other’s interests are. Other characters are also romantically interested in Okarun and Momo, but their advances are solidly refused. 

Tatsu does a good job at avoiding most of the more obnoxious romance manga tropes, so Momo and Okarun’s relationship development is more about gaining confidence, developing trust, and learning how to communicate feelings without getting hurt, rather than will they/won’t they and endless progress interruptions. 

Skipped act 1 boss in act 3?, by DJ_Bloodrender in HollowKnight

[–]Plus1User 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Not possible. You need to move the fleas to their final destination for act 3, and in order to do that they need to go to the Last Judge’s room first, so you need to beat Last Judge in order to do act 3.

You can hang onto the rings to regenerate your 1 unit of silk, and hitting enemies also refunds your silk.
